The Chiefs enjoyed moderate success with Steve DeBerg and Dave Krieg until someone named Joe Montana led them to an AFC Championship Game appearance in 1993.

Not a marketing gimmick
“As we speak Louis is in Texas catching balls with Patrick Mahomes,” he told Planet Rugby. “No amount of marketing can make that happen.
“The team that just won back-to-back Super Bowls not only signed him, they actively recruited him. The head coach was calling his phone every day, the General Manager was calling his phone every day. You can’t buy that.
